MM- try not to catch anything

I wasn't sure if I should put this here or the humor thread, but I suppose it's a follow-up to the previous post. Limited edition Podesta playing card, please submit $500 USD to my account before saving, thank you.

"
Podesta is described as "a longtime advocate for government disclosure of UFO files."[23] Podesta has supported petitions by some who believe UFOs are alien spacecraft to the government to release files related to the subject. At a 2002 news conference organized by Coalition for Freedom of Information Podesta stated that, "It is time for the government to declassify records that are more than 25 years old and to provide scientists with data that will assist in determining the real nature of this phenomenon."[24]"

Could this be an attempt to reveal sensitive starchild secrets? Make public their transports and therein cut off traffic to and from the planet?

If the jews hadn't ruin my ability to upvote, I would have given you a +1 Nobilid.

Some types should go straight into the hall of fame, there is no one who wouldn't call him a snake melon.
Nice touch with the melon.

Should name the Edenic Card Game "Fruit Salad".

(nice feature the post saves, was about to post then my internet went down, the jews, again)

See, the Jews have oppressed me even worse--you're not going to believe this, but I've never even had the ability to upvote. I suspect this is a direct consequence of the Protocols of the Learned Elders of Zion, though I'm not 100% certain.

I'll probably do a Nobilid card next and drop it off in the Humor Thread safe-space lest (((they))) once again try to interfere.

Senator Chris Coons, or as he's known by some, "Bald Ginger Vampire Man".

He's got some serious Parietal Punching Power--almost Jacob Rothschild tier--but also some minor occipital protrusion. Still, I think his par and general writeprint are meloney enough for the inclusion to MM.

I will once again be drawing from Aeoli's blog posts for reference when giving the rundown on von Bismarck.

He writes:

Aeoli Pera said:

Of all the edenic types, they are the most enthusiastic about violence in all of its forms...

...Their intellectual interests are almost entirely restricted to war, violence, and anything directly related to war or violence.

I'd say this general description fits von Bismarck exceedingly well, being that the majority of pictures and paintings of him display him wearing some sort of military uniform, his nickname was "The Iron Chancellor" of Prussia, a country most famously described by Napoleon as being "hatched from a cannonball", and his most famous quote reads thusly:

Otto von Bismarck said:

"The great questions of the day will not be settled by means of speeches and majority decisions but by iron and blood."

Then there is of course the fact that, when it came to his appearance, it's plain to see even to the most untrained eye that he was nothing less than a luxuriantly owloid individual:

Aeoli continues,

Aeoli Pera said:

And just as men have to constantly control this feeling of lust, owl melons have to control their passion for violence. This, combined with charisma, gives their personalities a feeling of darkness that, in person, can feel like it’s enveloping you and dimming the lights.

It's easy to see that artist Franz von Lenbach got that same feeling of darkness when painting von Bismarck:

Because their brainmass is weighted toward the parietal region, they express this nonverbal intelligence primarily in symbols intelligence, statistical reasoning, game theory calculations, and abstract intuition. Their writing style is utilitarian and direct. Like other melons, their full-scale IQs are very high, averaging perhaps 155.

Emphasizing the game theory aspect of this description, let's examine von Bismarck's professional and personal resume, especially his achievements in the most dangerous game of statecraft:

Wikipedia said:

...a conservative Prussian statesman who dominated German and European affairs from the 1860s until 1890. In the 1860s, he engineered a series of wars that unified the German states, significantly and deliberately excluding Austria, into a powerful German Empire under Prussian leadership. With that accomplished by 1871, he skillfully used balance of power diplomacy to maintain Germany's position in a Europe which, despite many disputes and war scares, remained at peace. For historian Eric Hobsbawm, it was Bismarck who "remained undisputed world champion at the game of multilateral diplomatic chess for almost twenty years after 1871, [and] devoted himself exclusively, and successfully, to maintaining peace between the powers."

He provoked three short, decisive wars against Denmark, Austria, and France, aligning the smaller German states behind Prussia in its defeat of France. In 1871, he formed the German Empire with himself as Chancellor, while retaining control of Prussia. His diplomacy of realpolitik and powerful rule at home gained him the nickname the "Iron Chancellor." German unification and its rapid economic growth was the foundation to his foreign policy. He disliked colonialism but reluctantly built an overseas empire when it was demanded by both elite and mass opinion. Juggling a very complex interlocking series of conferences, negotiations and alliances, he used his diplomatic skills to maintain Germany's position and used the balance of power to keep Europe at peace in the 1870s and 1880s.

Historian Johnathan Steinberg said:

The scale of Bismarck's triumph cannot be exaggerated. He alone had brought about a complete transformation of the European international order. He had told those who would listen what he intended to do, how he intended to do it, and he did it. He achieved this incredible feat without commanding an army, and without the ability to give an order to the humblest common soldier, without control of a large party, without public support, indeed, in the face of almost universal hostility, without a majority in parliament, without control of his cabinet, and without a loyal following in the bureaucracy. He no longer had the support of the powerful conservative interest groups who had helped him achieve power. The most senior diplomats in the foreign service ... were sworn enemies and he knew it. The Queen and the Royal Family hated him and the King, emotional and unreliable, would soon have his 70th birthday. ... With perfect justice, in August 1866, he punched his fist on his desk and cried "I have beaten them all! All!"...

...the first phase of [his] great career had been concluded. The genius-statesmen had transformed European politics and had unified Germany in eight and a half years. And he had done so by sheer force of personality, by his brilliance, ruthlessness, and flexibility of principle (this flexibility of principle is, in my opinion, the main point of distinction between Owl Melons and MTs -Ed). ... [It] marked the high point of [his] career. He had achieved the impossible, and his genius and the cult of genius had no limits. ... When he returned to Berlin in March 1871, he had become immortal ...

Finally, we'll let the man speak for himself with a collection of quotes:

Otto von Bismarck said:

When you say you agree to a thing in principle you mean that you have not the slightest intention of carrying it out in practice.

The chosen one. The Great Communicator. The man. The myth. The legend.

Ronald Wilson Reagan (Throne name: "The Gipper" which translates roughly to "Righteous is the Mercy of Amun-Ra").

This conservative pseudo-demigod, currently entombed in the Reagan Presidential Pyramid at the Valley of the Kings (known informally as Simi Valley, CA), epitomized the traditionalism/hierarchy/conservatism of old-fashioned Melon society, similar to von Bismarck before him. But whereas von Bismarck was steely and militant, Reagan was warmly charismatic.

I didn't want David Byrne to get lonely in the TT thread, so here's another arch-weirdo/genius musician, but this time in a much more melony mold: Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart.

His physical and autobiographical aspects are similar to fellow Germanic melonhead Johann Wolfgang von Goethe: both were born to families of high standing in the Holy Roman Empire in the mid-18th centruy, both shared the name "Wolfgang", both were game-changing geniuses in their respective fields (though Goethe, as the epicenter genius of the period, had talents that were arguably a bit more diversified). Both had large, expressive eyes set behind the teeth, lack of chin recession, a long nose "designed to look down on others", an aerodynamically-shaped skull; you know the rest.

Both easily leveraged their talents to find favor with some noble court or another, though Mozart--despite having many friends and admirers in his native Salzburg--was more restless than Goethe and felt restricted in his role as Count Hieronymous von Colloredo's court musician, wishing to eventually compose operas. Goethe, by relative contrast, was within his first ten years at Duke Carl August's Saxe-Weimar court made a nobleman by said Duke, became a literary celebrity by age 25, was a member of Carl August's inner circle/privy council, sat on the war and highway commissions, assisted the Duke as a military observer during several battles against Revolutionary France, oversaw the reopening of silver mines in nearby Ilmenau, implemented a series of administrative reforms at the University of Jena, and just generally lived a more harmonious existence within the theocratic hierarchy of the Holy Roman Empire than did Mozart.

The film Amadeus, which chronicles Mozart's life, does a good job of encapsulating the absolute-madman-of-a-composer's impish, ridiculous personality (though if memory serves, it unfortunately leaves out his notorious/hilarious/insane scatalogically-focused letters to his father, wife, sister, family, friends, and basically anybody within trolling range. These letters numbered in the dozens and serve as a distilled, 190-proof example of long-form MM humor. The cover art of the film is also noteworthy for having a difficult-to-describe but unmistakably melony feel to it:

(I'll be following this post up with more musicians hailing from the other Edenic types--hopefully we'll have a proper ensemble going before too long).

Tom Cole looks like the creepy garbageman who eventually turns out to be a cannibalistic serial killer or something. He looks like he was created from an unsavory mixture of black mold, compost heap material, and the random bits of filth that accumulate under the refrigerator.

Edenic concepts independently verified by a high-IQ melon with a self-measured cranial capacity of 2,007cm^3; measurements of a few of his brilliant melon mates all yield +4sd volumes. His contention is that this represents modern sympatric speciation. Even mentions the 'thal occ in the comments. Most strikingly:

"The four cases also all exhibited very significant brachycephaly which is likely an adaptation to the difficulty of birthing a head of large cross-sectional area"
(My italics)

In other words: my 160+ IQ friends all have enormous parietal lobes, which I believe is a bio mechanical adaptationto birthing. Realistically, it explains their ability to master intellectual fields based on symbolic abstraction in a heartbeat. I'm not saying we're the master race, but I really think it's in all your best interests to start building pyramids. See you later kids, I'm off to Peru!
